“TIBCO is the only vendor that can aptly handle
the full range of both system-centric and human-
centric processes.”

Introducing
BPM+
It’s not just a process. It’s
your competitive advantage.
Your unique way of doing business is captured
in your business processes. Business process
management (BPM), both the software and the
management practice, provides the ability to
model, manage, and optimize those processes
for significant competitive advantage.
TIBCO delivers BPM Plus, a unified solution that
extends from process design to process optimization
and from front-office to back-office processes.
TIBCO iProcess™ Suite enables you to automate not
only routine tasks and exception-handling scenarios,
but to orchestrate sophisticated, long-lived processes
that involve people, information, and applications that
cross organizational and geographical boundaries.
TIBCO is able to provide this extra level of functionality
through our established leadership in service-
oriented architecture, business optimization, and
BPM technologies.

BPM solutions have typically been categorized by
the type of process they automate: integration-,
people-, decision-, or document-intensive. But few

All of the Process

TIBCO Supports Discovery and Design
TIBCO’s role-based approach
The entire
to BPM ensures that everyone
Process Lifecycle has what he or she needs
to contribute effectively at
every stage of the process
lifecycle. iProcess Suite’s
modeling interface enables
the collaborative modeling
of processes and supporting
rules. A robust simulation
environment makes it easy to
identify bottlenecks, anticipate
exceptions, and ensure that the
process meets requirements.
Integration
Business processes and the
systems that support them are
intertwined, but each must
operate free of constraints from
the other. iProcess Suite can tap
into IT systems using TIBCO’s
own integration platform or other
solutions. By creating what TIBCO
calls an independent process
layer, iProcess Suite lets IT and
business build services and
processes that can be reciprocally
leveraged, which speeds
development and eases changes.

Processes touch many parts of an organization and

many layers of an organization. How do you interact
with underlying IT systems so business processes
can involve those systems without spending half
your BPM project budget on integration and
change requests?

TIBCO delivers BPM and SOA in a unified

architecture, with an independent process layer
that allows changes to be made without affecting
underlying services and applications. This design
approach increases business agility, isolates the
impact of changes, and allows the specialized skills
of business analysts and IT to be properly harnessed.

processes fit neatly into one bucket. TIBCO is one
of the few vendors that can handle the full range of
process categories.

Deployment and Execution Sense and Respond Optimization

iProcess Suite uses standards-
based models so that when
business passes a model to
IT, there is a seamless path
from modeling to deployment.
With support for millions of
transactions per hour and tens of
thousands of concurrent users,
iProcess Engine can handle the
largest of deployments. Cutting
edge AJAX technology provides
a flexible workspace that enables
unprecedented productivity and
end-user engagement.
iProcess Suite is event-enabled,
allowing you to monitor
processes in real time and
detect issues and opportunities
when you can take meaningful
action. In combination with
sophisticated business rules,
iProcess Suite helps you
correlate seemingly unrelated
events to identify and address
critical issues before they
adversely affect the business.
iProcess Suite uses powerful
dashboards and analytics to
help users analyze current and
historical process performance
to identify opportunities for
improvement and evaluate the
potential impact of changes
by running sophisticated
simulations. iProcess Suite
also enables real-time process
optimization based on pre-set
goals and rules.

➔ ➔ ➔

With iProcess Suite, you do not need to adapt your

processes to a pre-defined norm. Our software
adapts to your processes – as they are now and as
you want to evolve them over time.

Our high-performance execution engine and

experience supporting event-driven, service-
oriented architectures enable us to support
